HELP: The update "Mac OS X Update Combined" can't be saved error -1001

I have a Mac Mini at a vacation town home, so it needs quite a few updates whenever I use it. Everything installed fine except a combined 10.5.6 and 10.5.7 update. Everytime I attempt to download/install it, it will download a few mbs, then stop and give me the error:
*The update “Mac OS X Update Combined” can’t be saved.*
A networking error has occurred: timed out (-1001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again.
My internet never seems to have conked out, as the 'ready' light on my modem is always lit, so where is the problem here?
Thanks in advance for the help.

The update "Mac OS X Update Combined" can't be saved.

A few days ago my mac ( late 2009 model MacBook pro running lion 10.7.2 ) started freezing, a lot. The freezing seemed to be a problem with osx itself rather than with any particular program. So I initiated software update hoping that there would be an osx update. Low and behold, there was.
Here is the problem.... I can't get it. I have tried twice and both times I get this message
"The update “Mac OS X Update Combined” can’t be saved.
The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs."
Any ideas?

Ok this problem has developed somewhat.
My machine has gone from bad freezing spells to being downright broken.
I rebooted the machine and got stuck at login screen.
Rebooted again and didn't get to login screen.
Rebooted again and got logged in but my desktop was unresponsive and then started flashing between the desktop image and a plain grey screen. I did this literally all night (left it over night).
So today I have booted up from an install of lion I have on an external FireWire drive. And all is well. I am trying to backup things like my photo library and other documents so that I can format the internal hard drive and and do a clean install.
I can access the hard drive, see all the files, but when trying to copy it over I get an error message saying
"the finder can't complete the operation because some data in "iPhoto library" can't be read or written ( error code -36 )
Now before anyone screams broken hard drive, the data can be read, because I can view it all in finder. Just can't copy it out to an external drive.
Please help!!
Oh ps. Before booting from the external I created a new admin account on my machine and booted int that. The freezing problem was the same as in my normal account.

The update "Mac OS X update combined (powerpc)" can't be installed?

I recently upgraded from OS X 10.3.9 to Tiger (10.4.6) and encountered a weird problem. My system is a Dual 1GHz G4 (mirror drive door) with 768 MB RAM.
When I try to launch iTunes, I get an error telling me that "iTunes requires Mac OS X 10.4.7 or later..."
That never happened before, so I assume that the Tiger installation (or a Software Update I was unaware of) sabotaged iTunes by imposing this new requirement.
Now here's the irony: I can't install OS X 10.4.7! When I run Software Update, it tries to install Mac OS X Update Combined (PowerPC) 10.4.10-- but it fails every time with the message:
The update "Mac OS X update combined (powerpc)" can't be installed.
The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by "Apple."
So this seems to be a transmission error, or something wrong with Apple's server. I've tried this repeatedly over the last few days, but nothing changes.
Any suggestions? I tried downloading the installer from Apple's download page, but it results in the same error. Is there perhaps a clean version of 10.4.8 I can download from somewhere?
It's really frustrating not being able to run iTunes because of an OS "upgrade."

Then, stop using Software Update, click the Downloads link at the page's top, and manually download the COMBO update. As for iTunes, apparently you installed a later version. With 10.4.6, your quite a few updates behind: OS, security, iTunes, and QuickTime, just to name a few. Before you update, be sure you make a bootable backup/clone. Details for doing that are in these:

Hi,
i'm a new member of this community. I've recently learn about flashback malware and other threats to Mac devices. I've installed the new Mac OS X update for Lion 10.7, and the flashback removal tool. What about the update for Flash Player? Should i install it? Otherwise, should i permanently remove this app?
I realy need some advice.
Thank's to all.

Be sure to install the latest version of Safari (version 5.1.7) which is available via Software Update (in the Apple menu) if you have not already installed it. This update will automatically disable older versions of Flash when new versions are available, and will instruct you on how to install the latest version on your system. This should help keep your system safe from any vulnerabilities in Flash.
Note that this is only useful if you use Safari, though other browsers have their own update mechanisms you should research and enable or configure to your liking.

The update "Mac OS X Update" can't be saved. ERROR

Hi,
I have been searching these forums for an answer.
Today I had a pop up informing me that update are available.

Any suggestion why this is happening.

Yes I am getting this error and so I got 10.5.7 from Support Downloads but then there was a Safari Beta 4 update and it did the same thing. I'm a little worried after that because I have already had Software Update probs and had to get a brand new MacBook so keep the answers coming

10.5.3 error: 'The update "Mac OS X Update" can't be saved.'

Hello,
When I run Software Update (on my iMac - no problems on the MacBook Pro) and try and download the 10.5.3 update I get the following messages in the error window"
*The update “Mac OS X Update” can’t be saved.*
*You do not have appropriate access privileges.*
*The Installer package has been moved to the Trash. To try again, open the package from the Finder.*
I've run "Repair Permissions" and "Verify Disk" several times and there seem to be no problems.
I'd be very grateful if anyone has any ideas what is going wrong!
Thank you.

"The Update Mac OS X Update (Power PC) can't be installed" ?

I have had the following problems for a few days now when trying to download and install Mac OS X Update 10.4.10 using the Software Update:
"The update Mac OS X Update (Power PC) can't be installed. The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by Apple. "
What does this mean?
I am having the same problem when downloading and installing QuickTime using Software Update.
First generation iMac G5, 1.8MHz 17 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Sound advice, but it isn't uncommon. See http://www.apple.com/support/tiger/install/ for installation details.
Additionally, see:
http://www.macattorney.com/ts.html
http://www.macmaps.com/upgradefaq.html and
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/installswupdates.html
for more information on how to backup, not only your data, but your entire HD to another volume/partition/disk so that the backup is bootable. Then, if something hoses the installation, you can revert back to the state you were in before updating.

The update "Mac OS X Update" can't be installed.

I get this message after it asks me to restart, and when the bar is moving it randomly stops and gives me this message:
The update "Mac OS X Update" can't be installed.
The Installer could not validate the contents of the 'MacOSCUpd10.5.6' package. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.
I'm running the update right through the software update screen. It's odd. I have just a two-week old MacBook Pro and can't figure out why I'm receiving this problem.

It's probably a corrupted update. It failed to validate. Nothing to do with your computer. One or more bits in the download are wrong.
I suggest using the download from the apple site:

10.4.8 update "Mac OS X Update (Intel)" Can't be Installed (OR DOWNLOADED!)

Wow --
This is a first: Software Update reports:
The update "Mac OS X Update (Intel)" Can't be Installed
The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered wit or correupted since being signed by "Apple".
Tried this several times, same message.
So, I tried downloading the stand-alone installers (MacOSXUpd10.4.8Intel.dmg and then MacOSXUpd10-1.4.8Intel.dmg).
Both stand-alone packages downloaded, but got a "verification failed" message in the Safari DOWNLOADS window.
Plenty of hard disk space. Permissions Repaired.
Any ideas?

Hello,
These types of errors usually indicate that the download was somehow corrupted or incomplete.
Most commonly, you'll get these when you are on dial-up, and there is line-noise.
But, I've also found some download servers will cause this kind of corruption if they are experiencing trouble at the moment.
I would not worry just yet.
Perhaps try again tomorrow and see if perhaps there is just a server problem. It could be a problem with Apple's server, or any server between you and Apple (such as your ISP).
This happens from time to time. I've even had it happen with small files from other places as well. Even DSL / Cable connections can have poor connections at times.
I hope this helps.

What is the latest Mac OS X that I can run on my 2.33 GHZ Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro?

My MBP was running the fan almost constantly and otherwise acting odd so I decided to just refresh the installation from scratch. At that time I was running Lion 10.7.5. Before rebuilding everything with that version I want to make sure running Lion on this machine isn't contributing to my issue.
What is the latest Mac OS X that I can run on my 2.33 GHZ Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro?
I have every OS release since the original purchase so I can rebuild on the one that's most stable on this laptop.

You can run Mt. Lion if you so wish:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
If you want the most efficient OS, I would suggest Snow Leopard.
However I suggest doing some investigation prior to installing a new OS. First do a SMC reset:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
Also run an Apple Hardware Test. Use the #2 disk on your original install disk.
If there is no improvement, post back.
Ciao.

I just bought a new iMac and am new to the desktop Mac. I read you can get a free upgrade to Mountain Lion if you bought your computer after June 11,2012. Do I have to do something before Mountain Lion is released? If so what?

Mac OS 10.5.8 update combined can't be saved, Apple digital signature incorrect.

Hi,
I have tried, several times, to update OS 10.5.1 to 10.5.8 using Apple's online software updater. It takes 20 minutes to download the 768 mb package but then
refuses to save with the following message. 2.16 GHz + 2 GB ram.
Mac OS X can't be saved. The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by Apple.
I need to update to 10.5.8 so I can then install 10.6 etc.
I have tried to install 10.6 without updating to 10.8 but it shows the message: Mac OS X can't install on this computer. I assume this is because I have not, and
cannot, updated to 10.5.8.
Any help would be appreciated.
Apple want me to pay $20 to advise them that their software package has an incorrect digital signature, even though it has only just been downloaded from their servers. No email address to advise Apple of problem.

Hello, it's generally one of two thinks that cause this, but it is a bad download.
Try Ethernet instead of Airport if possible.
Disk can be corrupted...
Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
Try getting it direct instead of SWUPDate...
Repair Permissions afterwords, reboot.

TI SmartView doesn't run since the last Mac OS X update

Hi everybody,
I currently use TI SmartView (Interactiv Emulator for TI Calcs) with my pupils. Since the last update of Mac OS X (my macbook runs with 10.6.5 version), TI SmartView doesn't run and I have the following message which appears:
+Process: JavaApplicationStub [1208]+

Do you know what is this problem ? Is it a problem with Java ?
Many thanks for your answers !
Friendly yours,
David

- I also tried to reinstall this software, without any success.
- TI contacted me and gave me a web link to download TI SmartView 1.1 ... I've done this, installed it ... and the same problem is always here ! :-((
I think that this problem probably comes from Java.
Here is the beggining of the error report:
